Les miserables:

Answer:

Cosette has had a truly tragic childhood. At the mere age of three, Fantine is forced to pay the Thénardiers, at an inn that they own to take care of Cosette as Fantine attends her job each day. Cosette suffered through starvation, lack of affection, and has Chilblains on her hands and feet (Chilblains is a medical condition caused by an escalated exposure to cold and humidity.) Cosette is even abused and harassed daily by the Thenardiers while they “take care of her” while her mother works. The Thenardiers would beat her violently and constantly, insult her by referring to her constantly as thin and pale, and dressed in rags.  When Fantine is secluded in the hospital, Jean Val Jean promises to go retrieve Cosette for Fantine. Devastatingly, Fantine dies before being able to reconnect or see her daughter again. Although Jean Val’Jean is devastated by the death of Fantine, he is determined to follow through with his promise. As he goes to retrieve cosette, he witnesses how gruesomely she is mistreated by the Thenardiers. He comes back the next day with a beautiful and expensive doll that he offers to Cosette. She joyfully accepts, and after lots of bribery and manipulation leaves with Jean Val’Jean.  

Marius is the ever caring suitor of Cosette. When Marius Pontmercy is first introduced to the story he lives with his rich and powerful ninety year old Grandfather, Monsieur Gillenormand. Monsieur Gillenormand is a passionate Monarchist and expresses his support often and loudly. For the entirety of Marius’s life, he had been told repeatedly that his father, George Pontmercy had abandoned him and given him to Gillenormand years ago. Shortly after Marius turns seventeen he is sent to meet his father for the first time. He soon learns that his father is fatally ill, and arrives just after he dies. The only trace left of his father is a note that was left to Marius from him. The note instructs Marius to help and support Thenardiers in any way that he can. The reason for this is because of the belief that his father has that Thenardier saved his life. In the future this presents Marius with countless problems after the daughter of Thenardiers falls in love with him. He must reject her day after day as he continues to strive for Cosette's affection.  

I think Cosette was definitely the one with the most unbearable and miserable childhood. Cosette was forced to overcome shame, disgrace, abuse and much more. Marius did have an overwhelming amount of pressure and social expectations that he had to overcome, but Cosette was faced with endless amounts of bullying, physical abuse, and discrimination for the fact that her existence was the result of a scandal. It is exceptionally fortunate that Jean Val Jean found and adopted her. Without Jean Val Jean Cosette would have been abandoned, starved, and frozen.

Write a letter to your friend who lives in Mumbai, explaining how your school celebrated the World Environment Day.
quester [9]

Answer:

Letter to a friend about my school's World Environment Day celebration.

Explanation:

ABC Apartments

XYZ Road

Mumbai

8 June 2021

My dear friend,

How are you? I hope you are doing well. I am also doing fine.

recently, our school celebrated World Environment Day and I would like to tell you about the event that changed my whole perception of what the day means. I have never been one to be too conscious of the environment but this particular Day opened my eyes to the issue.

The celebration was opened with the planting of trees all around the school's campus, while some groups also planted trees along the roads and even in their neighborhoods. Then, there were some presentations done on global warming and how the earth will look like in the comingf uture if we don't change our ways.

Various competitions like painting competitions, speeches, debates, and skits were also organized. Then, we also volunteered to spread awareness about environment conservation programs and how we can help save the earth in our daily lives.

After the day was done, I was left wondering if I can do the same thing, little by little. And then I decided that I will try to do my part as much as I can.

My point being, I would also like you to help save the environment as much as you can. I hope this letter helps you learn about the environment.

Take good care of yourself and I will be seeing you soon.

Lots of love,

Your best friend .......

Write a short paragraph citing evidence from the text to show that Sara was a good storyteller.
san4es73 [151]
Some evidence from the text that shows Sara was a good storyteller is when the text says “Sara not only could tell stories, but she adored telling them. We she sat or stood in the midst of a circle and began to invent wonderful things, her green eyes grew big and shining, her cheeks flushed, and, without knowing that she was doing it, she began to act and made what she told lovely or alarming by the raising or dropping of her voice, the bend and sway of her slim body, and the dramatic movement of her hands.” This shos very descriptive writing in where it shows that Sara has a passion for reading books and making them sound more joyful no matter was she's reading. But an also making her reading sound more realistic, you could just tell by looking at her that she enjoys what she's doing.
